My immediate thought was them also moving LeBron and blowing it up to retool lmao


Landing Luka while “blowing” it up is a massive W

I was about to go to sleep too

 

Idgaf trade Jimmy for LeBron.

 

It's 5:20pm here. Happy days lol

 

Mavs WHAT!?

 

forgot he's literally 25 lmfao

 

this 3am bill simmons podcast is gonna hit like crack in the 80s

 

Can’t wait for the stories

 

I feel like I can never look at those bleacher report trades and think “well that would never actually happen” again

 

Stephen A seems like he likes the trade more for the Mavs than for LA

 

I’ve seen the photoshops and I gotta say yellow doesn’t look great on Luka

 

I don’t see how this makes LA a great deal better either though. Who’s going to play defense?

 

Lakers will definitely make more moves this week.

All I can think of in terms of the return for Luka is that AD is under contract for 2 more years than Luka is. If they both had 1 year left, then maybe then there’d be more picks? idk

 

This is nuts

 

I think it comes down to them wanting a star player now. People saying ‘why didn’t they hit up Brooklyn for all of their picks’ - because they didn’t want that?

 

This is the worst trade in the history of the nba

 

Lakers traded AD and got less healthy LOL
